# Mock OrcaFlex API for testing without license

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### 2. Abstract API Interface Pattern

Creating abstraction layer for multiple tools:

```python
class MarineAnalysisAPI(ABC):
    """Abstract base class for marine analysis software APIs."""

    @abstractmethod
    def create_model(self, config: dict) -> Any:
        """Create new analysis model."""
        pass

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### 3. Mock Testing Strategy

Testing without software licenses:

```python
import pytest
from unittest.mock import Mock, patch, MagicMock
from pathlib import Path

class TestOrcaFlexIntegration:
    """Test suite for OrcaFlex integration using mocks."""


*See sub-skills for full details.*
### 4. Error Handling and Retry Logic

Robust error handling for API calls:

```python
import time
from functools import wraps
from typing import Callable, Any, Optional

def retry_on_failure(
    max_retries: int = 3,
    delay: float = 1.0,

*See sub-skills for full details.*
### 5. Batch Processing with APIs

Automate multiple analyses:

```python
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor, as_completed
from typing import List, Dict
import pandas as pd

class BatchAnalysisRunner:
    """
    Run batch analyses using marine analysis APIs.

*See sub-skills for full details.*

## Complete Examples

### Example 1: Multi-Tool Integration Workflow

```python
from pathlib import Path
import numpy as np

def multi_tool_analysis_workflow(
    geometry_file: Path,
    analysis_config: dict,
    output_dir: Path
) -> dict:
    """
